we dont gain 4 hours of sun.....its always lighter longer during the day in teh summer time anyways.  But I do like how it will be semi daylight at 930-10pm.  We are an active family in the summer....well winter time too....but I hate coming home from work and its dark.  Especially when you leave in the morning its dark too.  So you basically dont see any sunlight....I cant wait...cause this will be the first summer for us on Eastern Time.....we are about as far west as eastern can get.  WE are still fighting the time zone thing....but i wish the hell they just leave it alone.

When I lived back east, I would love it when it was time to spring forward, it meant the longer days and warmer weather were coming. Though there is a time when you start wanting the cooler fall weather too, usually in the dog days of August.
 
Being out in AZ now, we don't have to change our clocks, which I'm thankful for. We get plenty of warm sunny days here all year round, so there's no need for it. Comes a point in July and August where the sun just won't go down soon enough, so we definitely don't need any daylight savings here, lol.

I like the longer days, but I like the extra hour of sleep we get in the "fall back".

Ditto!

Bring on Spring. I like the longer days and getting out to exercise or work in the yard after work.

Good words, Rob. I am soo ready for spring.  It's been a long hard winter.  But this weeks lookin better.  It's supposed to be in the 60's for the first time in months.  Bring on spring.

But the first week after changing from winter- to summer-time I'm tired from morning to evening!
